# Fluent source control in ServiceNow Studio

# Fluent source control in ServiceNow Studio {#ariaid-title1}

Release version: Australia  
Updated July 23, 2026  
![](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/portal-asset/ico-clock) 1 minute to read  
Integrate with remote Git repositories to manage Fluent applications in source control ServiceNow Studio.

You can connect to a Git provider using basic or OAuth 2.0 authentication. Then, initialize a repository for an application in the ServiceNow Studio and push it to a remote repository or clone a remote repository that contains an application. After setting up authentication and connecting to a repository, you can use common Git commands to manage
applications in source control.

## Instance requirements {#fluent-source-control-sn-studio__section_byw_52y_zjc}

If an instance includes modified configurations for saving attachments, the following requirements must be met to perform Git operations:

* If the `glide.attachment.extensions` system property is configured, it must contain <kbd class="ph userinput">txt,gitdata</kbd>.
* If the `glide.security.attachment_type.use_blacklist` system property is set to true:
  * The `glide.attachment.blacklisted.extensions` system property must not contain <kbd class="ph userinput">txt,gitdata</kbd> and
  * The `glide.attachment.blacklisted.types` system property must not contain <kbd class="ph userinput">text/plain,application/octet-stream</kbd>.

{#fluent-source-control-sn-studio__ul_hmc_hgy_zjc}
